==Announcing the names of the new Pontiff==

In announcing the name of the newly-elected pontiff, the new pontiff's birth forename or first name is announced in Latin in the accusative case (e.g., ''Angelum Iosephum'', ''Ioannem Baptistam'', ''Albinum'', ''Carolum'', ''Iosephum''), but the new pontiff's surname or family name is given in the original form (e.g., ''Roncalli'', ''Montini'', ''Luciani'', ''Wojtyła'', ''Ratzinger''). The new pope's [[regnal name]] is usually given in the genitive case in Latin (e.g., ''Ioannis vicesimi tertii'', ''Ioannis Pauli primi'' etc.), although it can also be declined in the accusative case in Latin (as was the case in 1963 when [[Pope Paul VI]]'s regnal name was announced as ''Paulum sextum'').

Habemus Papam ("We have a Pope!") at the Council of Constance

Habemus Papam! ("We Have a Pope!") is the announcement given in Latin by the Cardinal Protodeacon, the senior Cardinal Deacon]], upon the election of a new pope.

The announcement is given from the central balcony of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. After the announcement, the new pope is presented to the people and he gives his first Urbi et Orbi blessing.

Format

The format for the announcement when a cardinal is elected Pope is:

Annuntio vobis gaudium magnum:
Habemus Papam!
Eminentissimum ac reverendissimum Dominum,
Dominum [First Name] Sanctæ Romanæ Ecclesiæ Cardinalem [Last Name],
Qui sibi nomen imposuit [Papal Name].

In English, it reads:

I announce to you a great joy:
We have a Pope!
The most eminent and most reverend Lord,
Lord [First Name] Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church [Last Name],
Who takes for himself the name of [Papal Name].

In the most recent Habemus Papam announcement, given by Cardinal Jorge Medina Estévez on 19 April 2005 upon the electionofPope Benedict XVI, the announcement was preceded by a greeting in several languages:

Fratelli e sorelle carissimi. (Italian) Queridísimos hermanos y hermanas. (Spanish) Bien chers frères et sœurs. (French) Liebe Brüder und Schwestern. (German) Dear brothers and sisters. (English)

Announcing the names of the new Pontiff

In announcing the name of the newly-elected pontiff, the new pontiff's birth first name is announced in Latin in the accusative case (e.g., Angelum Iosephum, Ioannem Baptistam, Albinum, Carolum, Iosephum), but the new pontiff's surname or family name is given in the undeclined form (e.g., Roncalli, Montini, Luciani, Wojtyła, Ratzinger). The new papal name is usually given in the genitive case in Latin, corresponding to the translation "who takes the name of ..." (e.g., Ioannis vicesimi tertii, Ioannis Pauli primi etc.), although it can also be declined in the accusative case, corresponding to the translation "who takes the name ...", as was the case in 1963 when Pope Paul VI's regnal name was announced as Paulum sextum.
